"What mineral vein?" Tiezhen asked.
“If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the associated mineral veins of spirit stone and green light stone.” Yuqiao Sanren replied.
"Spirit stone vein?" Tiezhen was shocked. This is a good thing.
Qing Yangzi remained calm, "I don't know Xu Dong, can I trust him?"
"More than a decade ago, he and I experienced several dangerous situations. Although we are not life-and-death friends, we have always had a good relationship." Yuqiao Sanren stroked his chin and said, "Besides, if we work together, we may not be his opponent. The Xu family of Tongfeng City is not Jinghu Palace."
Yujiao Sanren is also a cultivator who is only one step away from entering the Nascent Soul stage. His strength is no less than Qingyangzi and Tiezhen. With the combined efforts of the three, he is confident that he can face Xu Dong.
"Where is Brother Yi?" Qingyangzi placed another piece and looked at Yi Ming.
That's why he asked Yujiao Sanren to invite many independent cultivators to help.
The correct content is in %六九% book'bar!
Qingyangzi and Tiezhen nodded. They estimated that the Xu family had suffered heavy losses because of this chaos. Otherwise, Xu Dong might not have needed to seek help from Yuqiao Sanren. After all, they were a family with profound cultural heritage, and there must be some cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining in the family.
Can friends of more than ten years be as handy to use as family members and subordinates?
"Xu Dong is quite talented, but he is not a direct disciple of the family. He can only be considered the youngest son of the eldest son."
Tie Zhen suddenly realized, Qing Yangzi laughed, and Yu Qiao San Ren looked unhappy. Yi Ming clearly put a multiple-choice question on the table, and the answer? It was already obvious.
Yuqiao Sanren thought for a moment and continued, "The Xu family in Tongfeng City is the overlord of the city. They have always had one or two cultivators in the early stage of Condensation to suppress other forces. However, eight years ago, the old patriarch of the Xu family passed away, and the Xu family had no successor, which caused quite a bit of chaos."
Qingyangzi replied, and said to Tiezhen with a smile, "Brother Yi said that you are alive today because of luck. I thought it was a bit exaggerated before, but now I think you are alive today because of luck."
Tie Zhen tugged at a strand of his beard, wondering how likely he was to win against a cultivator in the Condensation Stage. But after thinking about it, he decided that escaping from Xu Dong would be no problem. Besides, what if Xu Dong kept his promise? "What are those two Xuan-level beasts?" Yi Ming asked.
"As for Xu Dong's strength, before he was promoted to the Condensation Stage, he should be weaker than me. I don't know about him after he was promoted to the Condensation Stage." Yuqiao Sanren frowned and said, "But maybe because of his injury, he didn't give me a feeling of invincibility."
Even if they don't say it, or even think about it actively, as casual cultivators, they still have that subconscious vigilance in their hearts. It's just that sometimes they themselves don't even know it, otherwise they wouldn't have lived to this age.
At this point, Yuqiao Sanren thought for a moment, glanced at Yi Ming, and continued, "It seems that he is worried that using the cultivators in the family will cause losses, and the Xu family is currently in the recovery stage, and he can't afford the losses."
"Money can move people's hearts. Xu Dong is the patriarch of the Xu family first, and your friend second." Yi Ming said calmly, "If sacrificing the four of us can help him make further progress, or allow the Xu family to have a few more cultivators in the late Qi Refining stage or even the Condensation stage, do you think he will take action?"
"There must be." Yuqiao Sanren confirmed.
"About six years ago, Xu Dong advanced to the Condensation Stage, and immediately returned to his family. He successively killed several cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining in Tongfeng City, and stabilized the Xu family's position. However, the Xu family had already suffered a great loss at that time. He has been consolidating the foundation in the past few years. There should be no more than five cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining in the family, and now the Xu family has not recovered to its heyday."
"He is your friend, so you can't be too sure about this feeling." Qing Yangzi shook his head and said, "Does he have a Xuan-level magic weapon?"
"By the way, reading novels can also improve survival." Yi Ming thought to himself, silently highlighting this point. However, his words were mainly to remind Qingyangzi and the other two. He himself had always been cautious and vigilant, so he was able to kill one, two... three cultivators in the Condensation Stage along the way?
Tiezhen chuckled dryly, and Yi Ming raised the corner of his mouth, thinking to himself, I would say that I have read a lot of novels in my previous life, and this kind of plot of being betrayed after helping has been written to death, so when I heard this kind of plot, I immediately became alert.
He was undoubtedly the person who was most familiar with Xu Dong among the people present, and it was also his idea to hope that everyone would go together to help. When he heard Yi Ming's questioning, it seemed that he wanted several people to give up this opportunity, so he couldn't help but refute it.
He had no confidence in Xu Dong's character.
"He and I have been friends for more than ten years. He is not the kind of person who would turn against me for some resources." Yuqiao Sanren couldn't help but frown.
Yuqiao Sanren was dumbfounded.
Yuqiao Sanren raised his eyebrows, Tiezhen and Qingyangzi nodded secretly, and everyone understood what Yi Ming meant. If the vein was not big, Xu Dong should not break the contract, but if the vein was too big, everyone should be careful.
"I just hope that this vein of minerals isn't too big." Yi Ming said with a sigh.
"So the focus now is not whether Xu Dong can be trusted, but whether we can withstand it when he turns hostile, or whether he will kill us all and wipe us out." Yi Ming said casually, "If you can stop him, then you can go. If you can't stop him, then it's best not to go."
As it concerns his life and property, Yuqiao Sanren also began to introduce him to everyone, "So he doesn't have as many resources as some direct disciples. If he wants to go far, he has to pay more than others. I also met him during this period."
This feeling is also the reason why Yuqiao Sanren dared to agree to Xu Dong's invitation to Qingyangzi and Tiezhen.
Moreover, all those killed were disciples from large sects, not to mention Lian Jiezi who was killed in collaboration with the three ladies from Jinghu Palace.
Yuqiao Sanren shook his head a little embarrassedly, "He didn't say."
Yi Ming nodded, "It's okay, it's not a big problem. If we go over there, he will definitely tell us."
Yuqiao Sanren knew that Yi Ming was comforting himself. After all, if he and others went there, would they retreat just because they heard that the ferocious beast was a difficult species to deal with?
"In fact, we should be well prepared and tell Xu Dong that we will only hold one of them back, and he will kill the beast. We will protect ourselves and not get hurt, so there won't be a big problem." Tie Zhen sighed and said, "But in this case, how can we still be qualified to ask to enter the mine first?"
The situation is very contradictory. If you don't work hard, you won't get any benefits. If you work hard, you worry about being caught. This is the sadness of a casual cultivator without a backer. If it were the three girls from Jinghu Palace, do you think they would be worried that Xu Dong would go back on his word? (End of this chapter)
